BACKGROUND

1. Technical Field

The present disclosure relates to a packaging assembly.

2. Description of Related Art

A package assembly includes at least one foam, made from expandedpolyethylene or extruded polyethylene material, and a paper box,configured to accommodate an electronic device and the foam. However,the foam sometimes cannot securely grasp the electronic device. Theelectronic device is still easily to be damaged when it is dropped orsuffers from impact.

Therefore, there is room for improvement in the art.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The disclosure is illustrated by way of example and not by way oflimitation in the figures of the accompanying drawings in which likereferences indicate similar elements. It should be noted that referencesto “an” or “one” embodiment in this disclosure are not necessarily tothe same embodiment, and such references mean at least one.

FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of a package assembly. The package assemblyincludes a package member 10 and a securing member 20. In oneembodiment, the package member 10 is used for packaging an electronicdevice, such as a computer host. The securing member 20 is made fromadhesive tape.

In one embodiment, a main portion of the package member 10 is made fromexpanded polyethylene material. The package member 10 includes a holdingseat 11 and a grasping portion 13 protruding from each of four cornersof the holding seat 11. An accommodating space 30 is formed between theholding seat 11 and the grasping portion 13.

The holding seat 11 includes two vertical resisting portions 114 and aplurality of connecting portions 112 perpendicularly connected to eachof the two vertical resisting portions 114. A first groove 1121 isdefined in each of the plurality of connecting portions 112. The firstgroove 1121 includes a first base surface 1123 and a first slantingsurface 1125 connecting with the first base surface 1123. A first anglebetween the first base surface 1123 and the first slanting surface isnot less than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees. A plurality ofreinforced ribs 1126 protrudes from the two vertical resisting portions114. A pair of second grooves 1140 is defined in each of the twovertical resisting portions 114. Each pair of second grooves 1140includes a second base surface 1142 and a second slanting surface 1144connecting with the second base surface 1142. A second angle between thesecond base surface 1142 and the second slanting surface 1144 is notless than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees. The first base surface1123 is substantially perpendicular to the second base surface 1142.

At least one second reinforced rib 131 is attached to and protrudes froman exterior surface of the grasping portion 13. In one embodiment, theat least one second reinforced rib 131 is made from extrudedpolyethylene material.

The securing member 20 includes an enclosing frame 21 and a pair ofresisting sections 23 extending from the enclosing frame 21. Theenclosing frame 21 includes a vertical section 211, a pair of horizontalsections 213 substantially perpendicular to the vertical section 211,and a pair of slanting connecting sections 215 connected to two ends ofthe vertical section 211 and the pair of horizontal sections 213. Thepair of resisting sections 23 is connected to and substantiallyperpendicular to the vertical section 211.

FIG. 2 shows that in assembly, the enclosing frame 21 is adhered to andsurrounds the holding seat 11. The vertical section 211 is located inthe first groove 1121 and adhered to the first base surface 1123. Eachof the pair of resisting sections 23 is located in the second groove1140 and adhered to the second base surface 1142. In one embodiment, thevertical section 211 abuts the first slanting surface 1125. Each of thepair of resisting sections 23 abuts the second slanting surface 1144.

In use, the electronic device is placed in the accommodating space 30formed by the package member 10. The grasping portion 13 grasps theelectronic device. The securing member 20 helps the package member 10 tosecurely grasp the electronic device in the accommodating space 30.

It is to be understood, however, that even though numerouscharacteristics and advantages have been set forth in the foregoingdescription of embodiments, together with details of the structures andfunctions of the embodiments, the disclosure is illustrative only andchanges may be made in detail, especially in matters of shape, size, andarrangement of parts within the principles of the disclosure to the fullextent indicated by the broad general meaning of the terms in which theappended claims are expressed.
